 <doors> wtf. devs inserted trapdoors!?
 "tor_malloc_zero(num_modes*sizeof(build_time_t))" how much? anything else?

 I think what doors was referring to is that we don't do any sanity checks
 on the value of the consensus parameter, so we can either request
 ridiculous amounts of memory or worse request 0 modes. Since doors
 immediately left irc I had no time to confirm if there was more.
